Once the needle is in place and you have confirmed a flow of ascitic fluid, remove the needle and introduce the Bonanno catheter tip at the same point using the Seldinger technique, pulling back the metal guide wire as the plastic tubing remains in the abdominal cavity. Ascitic fluid should be visible at the end of the port. If it is not, reattach the syringe and aspirate.

The right internal jugular vein was cannulated with an 8 F Desivalve introducer sheath (Vygon, Swindon, UK) and the right common carotid artery cannulated with a 7 F Desivalve introducer sheath using the Seldinger technique. A balloon tipped flow-directed cannula (744MF75 Swan Ganz, Edwards Life Sciences Ltd, Newbury, UK) was placed in each of the right vessels to enable measurement of continuous real time arterial and venous oxygen saturation via Vigilance II (Vigilance Volumetrics CEDV, Edwards Lifesciences, US). As soon as intravenous access was available an infusion of Vetivex 11 (Hartmann’s solution) (2.0 ml·kg−1·h−1) was delivered to replace insensible fluid losses. Finally, a Bonanno catheter was introduced into the bladder via an open cystotomy.
